Keel

Previous | Next |>

"Keel" was created for the "Korero", An exhibition by invitation at the Uxbridge Arts Centre, Howick, Auckland. A Fusion of Poetry and Art Exhibition. "Keel" was created in response to Siobhan Harey's beautiful poem "Tooth".

"Keel" is comprised of 108 tiny white origami boats tipped on their sides to represent both the teeth and the boats in the poem, mounted onto recycled Matai flooring.

Each boat is hand folded, on a pearly white paper, with one red to emphasise the tragic moment in the story.
